Escambia Felon Gets Federal Prison For Weapon Possession
August 3, 2025
An Escambia County felon has been sentenced in federal court for possession of a firearm and ammunition.
Brandon Martez Black, 27 was sentenced to 100 months in prison after previously pleading guilty to possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon.
On June 8, 2024, Black, a felon with prior drug trafficking convictions, fled in a vehicle from the Florida Highway Patrol (“FHP”) after an attempted traffic stop on Longleaf Drive. FHP was able to disable Black’s vehicle after performing a PIT manuver. Black fled on foot and threw a loaded Glock .40 caliber pistol over a fence into a residential backyard, which was later recovered by law enforcement.

As long as Escambia Judges whom are inept and corrupt remain in power, we will see situations like this repeat themselves over and over. End absolute immunity in the courtroom. Hold slack judges accountable. Force them to reckon with the outcomes that their shortsighted rulings create. They punish victims and hug the thugs. They frequently enable abusers!
He didn’t learn the first few times. I agree with @JTV, SOME Judges ruin the entire Judicial system with the slap on the hand. Other Judges make them look like the idiots they are. The recidivism moves on while people move out of our County. Stop the crime, Judges! Do your jobs!
Our fine law enforcement officers have taken this trash off the streets before. He keeps breaking laws, endangering our lives and community and our weak justice officials slaps the trash on the hand and gives out weak sentences.
